Melanie "Mel" Mallard is a character in the PlayStation Portable version of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. She and her missions are not in either the Nintendo DS or the iPhone/iPod versions of the game.

Looking to make her big break in journalism, documentary filmmaker Melanie Mallard has made a deal with Chan Jaoming that she believes will help her finally make a name for herself as she captures the Triads’ rule of the City’s drug trade on camera. Huang Lee escorts her around as she films the action. She is killed by Chan Jaoming when she was about to reveal Chan and Huang's identities on the documentary without obscuring their faces.
